AR# 32732

11.2 iMPACT, PROM File Formatter - BPI Down direction has been removed from the GUI

Description

The BPI Down option has been removed from the iMPACT PFF GUI. How can I generate these files?

Solution

The BPI Down direction has been removed to simplify the PROM File Formatter Flow. These files can still be generated using the Promgen command line with the "-d" option.

For example:

promgen -w -p mcs -c FF -o "<filename>" -s <PROM size> -d 3FFFFFF <path>/<filename>.bit -bpi_dc parallel

This command loads the ".bit" file in the down direction from the specified address.
